1. 16. Immune cell composition and cytokine expression in the pregnant and non-pregnant uterus

   Författare :Ylva Crona Guterstam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The success of implantation and further development of the embryo is heavily dependent on the endometrial immune cell composition and its ability to communicate with fetal semi-allogeneic trophoblast cells. Although our understanding of the immune cell population in the uterus has improved, its precise role in normal reproduction and reproductive disorders is still not fully resolved. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Against a backdrop of feminist and social scientific research on sex, female embodiment, and normality this thesis aims to discern how young women, who in adolescence have learned that their bodies are developing in ways considered ‘atypical’ for the female sex, make sense of their bodies and their situation. In focus are the ways in which the women make sense of and negotiate female embodiment; how they, particularly in stories about their interactions with others, position their embodied selves; and how norms and beliefs about sexed embodiment, heterosexual practice, and in/fertility are strengthened and challenged in the interviewees’ sense-making.
